This was such a fun Christmas season! Lots of parties, baking and time to chill once the holidays were over. Here’s what I was cooking and baking in December: Jess had a Chrismukkuh Party and she asked if I could bring some Hanukkah cookies, which was my pleasure (she loaned me her cookie cutters and......
After a month of indulgence, I really tried to rein it in this month and cook a lot more at home. There were still a couple of foodie adventures though: My imaginary best friend Alison Roman was in town on her extended book tour, and I went to see her (again) with a couple of......
This was a month of full of fun and absolute indulgence in all forms! That’s what happens when Thanksgiving, your birthday and Halloween all fall in the same month: I got dragged at work last month when I was describing how KitKat is my hands-down, top-tier, go-to chocolate bar, and was called BASIC by numerous......
I slowly continued to recover from COVID this month and got my appetite back in time for lots of tasty treats, including the last trip to my favourite bakery in the GTA: I met up with my friends for a lovely Labour Day weekend night out that began and ended at Seoulshakers for cocktails, with......
This was a bit of a weird August for me; I wasn’t living at home for the whole month, until I was, in a very PTSD way. Allow me to explain: I was at Lydia’s for the first week of August doing my annual housesitting/catsitting duties, where of course I ordered from her (and now......

It was quiet here this month because while I baked a lot, nothing was new or needed a dedicated blog post! Instead I’ll just share pictures of a couple cakes below because they were both so cute! I should have more to share next month though: I kicked off the month with a Pride Bake......
This May was quite possibly, the most fun month I’ve had since the pre-pandemic days, but because of that there wasn’t too much cooking happening at home! Here’s what was going on: After getting back from NYC, I met up with Weedy, Heini and Krishna at the new Piano Piano location on Colborne Street (which......
Well this is going to be a quick one since the month was bookended by my Pacific Northwest adventure and a weekend in NYC (more coming on that soon!). I didn’t cook or go out too much in between, but here are few noteworthy eats: I went to Chris & Debbie’s for Easter, and Debbie......
Sometimes March can be such a struggle to get through, even with the promise of Spring so close by! Apparently I got through it by baking FOUR cakes, and planning a fun adventure you’ll hear more about soon: I kicked off the month by going to my friend Jen’s birthday party, which started at Famous......
